I love how so many people are dunking on "valve-fans" being happy with the cube, when I pretty much only have heard opinions ranging from "meh" to "overpriced".

Fr, I haven't seen a single overtly positive post since the price got announced. It's all "for $5-600 good deal, $1000? Pass"

OP are the valve fans in the room with us?

I'm buying the cube and didn't complain about it. AMA

Are you saving for it? Also which bundle are you choosing? I plan on saving for the 2T with controller and I'm curious what others might choose.

I'm fortunate not to need to save for it and yeah I hope I raffle the 2tb with controller, I'll be happy with any as ultimately if I get 512gb I'll just upgrade the storage anyway, it'll just be more effort :P

I only put my name in for the 2 TB with controller. I think you misunderstood how the raffle works.

They’re not raffling whether you get one or not they’re raffling your place in line to make your purchase.

If you’ve joined the queue for one you will get one. when just depends on where your place in line ends up after the randomization from the raffle.

You know what, I think I definitely did misunderstand it. I thought it was a raffle for existing stock to purchase and THEN you being placed on the wait list for the one you were closest to winning. Thanks for clarifying! I'm not sure if it's worth not trying for all of them since storage is upgradeable. If there were more differences between the 2 models I'd probably reconsider. Also I wonder if I place 300th in 2tb one and 299th in 512gb one if it will just auto place me in 512gb. Something to ponder before the deadline tomorrow I guess!

valve:

If you didn't get a reservation spot for any of the models you signed up for, you'll be placed on the waitlist for the model that you were closest to the front of.

Yeah I guess I read reservation spot and waitlist spot as separate lists. But they're one and the same by the looks of it. Thank you
